Summary
Solar photovoltaics (PV) is the conversion of solar energy - light and heat from the sun - into electrical energy, which is consequently supplied either to the electric grid or to the consumer directly. This conversation is carried out by photosensitive semiconducting materials, assembled in the form of modules, usually referred to as solar PV modules or just solar modules.

Global solar photovoltaic (PV) modules market was valued at over $36 Billion in 2016 and is estimated to reach around $22 Billion in 2021, registering a negative compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of around 9% between 2016 and 2021. For the fourth consecutive year, Asia eclipsed all other markets, accounting for about two-thirds of global additions. The top five markets - China, the US, Japan, India, and the UK - together contributed approximately 95% of the market value in 2016.

On the flip side, the reduction in module prices resulted in an increase in the installed capacity in 2016 and is estimated to remain stable through the forecast period. The total installed capacity between 2017 and 2021 is estimated to be close to 380 gigawatts (GW) whereas it stood at approximately 262 GW between 2011 and 2016.

China, Japan, and the US led the global solar PV module market during the year 2016. The market developments in the top countries are largely due to the economies of scale, emerging technologies, and policy-based government and industrial institutions.

During the forecast period, on average, close to 75 GW are expected to be developed year-on-year. The market expansion was largely due to the increasing competitiveness of solar PV, as well as to rising demand for electricity and improving awareness of solar PV's potential as countries seek to alleviate pollution and reduce CO2 emissions (Ren21, 2017).
